I am playing this charming character in the musical Little shop of horrors this autumn. I have a habit of stitching a little thank you to the director when I do a play, so this is for Gry.

Be smart, by Shepherd's Bush

This is a small piece I have stitched for my colleague and team leder Kari. She has been a great support for me this year. We teach English in the same year an co-operate a lot, so I thought this was apt. There are some embellishments that are supposed to be attached, but now that I see it finished, I quite like it like it is.

Finished this for a friend, she started it many years ago, but I thought it was a shame to leave it a WIP especially since she now has a little girl that it is perfect for. Finished March 16

My granddad is an excellent craftsman and has among many things made and painted a couple of dozen Great Tits, the whole extended family has one. When I saw this design I knew I had to make it for him. At 91 he is still going strong, I hope I can stay crafting as long as him!

Castles in the air by Papillon creations. This was a SAL I joined a few years ago, and I loved the first few installments, but then it took an odd turn and I fell out of love with it. I always loved this bit though, and finally decided to get it done. I only had two circles and four pots to go plus the beads, so two nights of work did the job. Really pleased with how it turned out - and with the colours I chose. Finished 27th February 2016.

I've had this kit in my stash for a while, and with my parents' 45th wedding anniversary coming up I thought this would fit the bill nicely. Especially since they've never had a wedding sampler, and since my mum loves the English cottage style. Finished 21st February 2016
